Introduction
Philosophy is written in that great book which ever lies before our eyes I mean the universe but we cannot understand it if we do not first learn the language and grasp the symbols, in which it is written. This book is written in the mathematical language, and the symbols are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without whose help it is impossible to comprehend a single word of it; without which one wanders in vain through a dark labyrinth.
Galileo Galilei (15641642), astronomer, physicist and engineer
Sacred geometry is the language of the universe. It is the creative formula that breathes life into existence. Its energetic architecture reveals itself to us through form, pattern and number. It provides the vibrational blueprint for the construction of matter, and we can witness these archetypal designs at work in everything from the subatomic to the galactic. It is reflected in the division of our cells, the unfurling of a rosebud and the orbit of the planets. Geometry is about relationships. It describes the way in which any form animate or inanimate measures up to itself or another. It is not an invention; it is inherent in all things. Rooted in its nature is the understanding that nothing is in isolation, everything is connected.
You do not have to go anywhere to find it. It is your mother tongue, the language of your atoms and your cells. It is the intelligent order that speaks through the design of nature. It is there in the hexagonal pattern of a honeycomb, the five-pointed star of an apple core and the spiral of a pine cone. It is the way your embryo was formed as you were in your mothers womb, the relationship of your belly button to your big toe, the architecture of the building that you occupy. It is the distance from you to the Moon and the distance of the Moons orbit around the Earth.
DERIVATION OF THE WORDS
Geometry comes from the Greek geometriameaning measurement of the earth or land, gearth, metriameasure. In Olde English it is eorcrft, meaning earth-craft.
To be sacred is to be worthy of reverence. It stems from the Latin sacrare, from sacer, sacr-meaning to sanctify, or that which is holy, and to be holy is to be whole. Holy is from the Olde English hl, meaning in one piece, unharmed, complete.
The physical reality that we see is the result of a complex set of interactions, correspondences and flirtations that begin on unseen levels beyond our perception. At the dawn of our awareness, there is a conscious, organizing principle that defies understanding by science and logic alone. It is not a consciousness that is a mere product of the brain but one that is primal and expansive, a generative life force at work weaving together the fabric of the universe.
